Advocacy

Make vision health a national priority.

Through our Advocacy Program, PBNC urges federal, state and local officials to prioritize effective policies and sufficient funding for vision-related initiatives, which are currently lacking from the national health agenda. We need your voices to help make eye health and safety a state and national priority.

You can advocate for vision health and eye safety by doing the following:

Visit your local district officials to attend a town hall meeting, and share your personal story about vision health

Write to your elected officials about the importance of vision health policy

Support new bills and legislation to help fund programs that save sight

Share Your Story

Prevent Blindness Northern California is collecting stories about how eye health programs benefit you and your family. These personal stories are invaluable in showing local leaders how this issue impacts real people. Share your story and help ensure our future health care system reflects the needs of our communities.
Please contact our office for more information!
